This book is huge! See everybody in the September thread.

:wave:

I saw Barnes and Noble had most of the volumes in this series for about $10 each. Worth getting?

I just started Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. I was trying to read the book before I see the movie, but I kept getting sidetracked.

You have to be a Civil War buff but OMG Yes! It is the definitive collection of the Civil War.

finished See No Evil last night and started on 27 by William Diehl right after that.

i felt that the former was pretty good though the timeline kept jumping back and forth a bit till i get pretty dizzy. but it was entertaining nonetheless.

as i was searching for review about 27, i just found out that Diehl passed away last year...

I liked it. A little slow in some parts and a hurried ending but overall pretty satisfying. I think it will make an interesting movie if they ever option it.

A friend lent it to me to read so my price ($0) made it quite worth it. ;)

Wow, I didn't know that. . . I've read quite a few of his novels, and "Primal Fear" is one of my favorites. Talk about a jaw-dropping last page.
